Hsa_circ_0070440 mediates the prognosis and progress of human prostate cancer.

What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
backgroundThis study was designed to explore whether hsa_circ_0070440 was dysregulated in prostate cancer (PCa), and assess the effects of hsa_circ_0070440 alteration on PCa prognosis and cell function.
methodsThe expression levels of hsa_circ_0070440 were assessed in PCa tissues and cell lines. After the classification of patients with PCa based on mean hsa_circ_0070440 level in 138 cases, Chi-square test and survival analyses (Kaplan-Meier method and multivariable Cox proportional hazards analysis) were performed to assess the predictive value of hsa_circ_0070440 in treatment failure (TTF), time to PSA progression (TTPP) and overall survival time. To examine the function of hsa_circ_0070440 in PCa cells, 22Rv1 and C4-2B cells were used for CCK-8 proliferation and Transwell migration assays. Hsa_circ_0070440- and TXNDC5-specific bindings with miR-382/383-5p were validated by bioinformatic analysis and luciferase gene reporter assay.
resultsAn increased expression of hsa_circ_0070440 was found in PCA tissues and cell lines, associated with clinical T stage (
conclusionThis study demonstrated that hsa_circ_0070440 can predict the prognosis of PCa patients. Hsa_circ_0070440 can facilitate the proliferation and migration of PCa cells, possibly by sponging miR-382/383-5p.
